Currently running Win7 Ultimate x64. While I am currently not experiencing any problems, I am wondering if I should just go ahead and wipe and go back to Win7 Pro x64 since it looks to be leaner. Or should I just make the jump to Windows 8 (I have access to the OSs).

No. Ultimate can be as lean or rich as you want it to be, and running 8GB RAM there's no way you're low on resources.
